Chapter 3: Hosting a Session as a DM

This chapter details the process for DMs to submit their own sessions for players to join.

Submitting a New Adventure

To propose a session for the upcoming sign-up week, simply follow these steps:

  1. Log in to Signup.Spelslot.nl.

  2. Navigate to the bottom of the main page and click the "Make a New Adventure" button.

  3. Fill in the required fields with the following information:

Field

Description

Session Title

The name of your adventure.

Short Description

A brief, engaging summary of what the players will be doing.

Max Players

The maximum number of players you can comfortably run for the session.

Date (Start Date)

The specific date your session will begin.

Number of Sessions

Set this to 1 (One-shot), 2, 3, or 4. Setting it to anything other than 1 will automatically copy your adventure to the following weeks, maintaining consistency for a short campaign.

Engagement Icons

Set the level of Combat (Dragon), Exploration (Dungeon Gate), and Roleplay (Mask) on a scale of 1 to 3 icons.

Requested Room

Your preferred room for running the session. This is a preference and is not guaranteed (see Room Assignment below).

Tags

Keywords to help players filter and understand your session (e.g., Factions, Locations, Monsters). You can input multiple tags by separating them with a comma (,).

Room Assignment Priority

Room assignments are handled automatically after the sign-up deadline and follow a strict priority system to ensure consistency, especially for ongoing Story sessions:

  1. Story DM with Stored Room: Story DMs who request their pre-assigned, "stored" room are guaranteed to receive it.

  2. Story DM with Different Room: Story DMs who request a different room (one that is not their stored room) will be assigned it, provided the room has not already been taken by a higher-priority DM.

  3. General DM with Preferred Room: Non-Story DMs who request a specific room will be assigned it, provided the room is still available.

  4. DM with Random Room: Any remaining DMs are assigned an available room randomly.

Modifying Your Adventure

You retain full control over your session details until the deadline:

  • DM Changes: As the session creator, you can edit any information about your adventure up until the Sign-Up Deadline (Saturday 23:59).

  • Admin Changes: Admins also have the ability to modify any adventure details at any time.
